Answer:

Option 1 - The product of two negative rational numbers is never zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : The product of two negative rational numbers ?

Solution :

By zero product rule,

If a\cdot b=0 either a=0 or b=0 or both are zero.

i.e. the two number product will be zero if any of them is zero.

Now, this case is also valid for negative number as multiply of two negative number is positive.

As zero is not considering to be negative number.

So, the product of two negative rational numbers is never zero.

Therefore, option 1 is correct.

11. Let X denote the amount of time a book on two-hour reserve is actually checked out, and suppose the cdf is F(x) 5 5 0 x , 0
NISA [10]

Question not properly presented

Let X denote the amount of time a book on two-hour reserve is actually checked out, and suppose the cdf is F(x)

0 ------ x<0

x²/25 ---- 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

1 ----- 5 ≤ x

Use the cdf to obtain the following.

(a) Calculate P(X ≤ 4).

(b) Calculate P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4).

(c) Calculate P(X > 4.5)

(d) What is the median checkout duration, μ?

e. Obtain the density function f (x).

f. Calculate E(X).

Answer:

a. P(X ≤ 4) = 16/25

b. P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 3.75/25

c. P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 4.75/25

d. μ = 3.5

e. f(x) = 2x/25 for 0≤x≤2/5

f. E(x) = 16/9375

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Calculate P(X ≤ 4).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(X ≤ 4) = F(x) {0,4}

P(X ≤ 4) = x²/25 {0,4}

P(X ≤ 4) = 4²/25

P(X ≤ 4) = 16/25

b. Calculate P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = F(x) {3.5,4}

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = x²/25 {3.5,4}

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 4²/25 - 3.5²/25

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 16/25 - 12.25/25

P(3.5 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 3.75/25

(c) Calculate P(X > 4.5).

Given that the cdf, F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

So, we have

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = F(x) {4.5,5}

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = x²/25 {4.5,5}

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5)) = 5²/25 - 4.5²/25

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 25/25 - 20.25/25

P(4.5 ≤ X ≤ 5) = 4.75/25

(d) What is the median checkout duration, μ?

Median is calculated as follows;

∫f(x) dx {-∝,μ} = ½

This implies

F(x) {-∝,μ} = ½

where F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

F(x) {-∝,μ} = ½ becomes

x²/25 {0,μ} = ½

μ² = ½ * 25

μ² = 12.5

μ = √12.5

μ = 3.5

e. Calculating density function f (x).

If F(x) = ∫f(x) dx

Then f(x) = d/dx (F(x))

where F(x) = x²/25 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 5

f(x) = d/dx(x²/25)

f(x) = 2x/25

When

F(x) = 0, f(x) = 2(0)/25 = 0

When

F(x) = 5, f(x) = 2(5)/25 = 2/5

f(x) = 2x/25 for 0≤x≤2/5

f. Calculating E(X).

E(x) = ∫xf(x) dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = ∫x * 2x/25 dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = 2∫x ²/25 dx, 0,2/5

E(x) = 2x³/75 , 0,2/5

E(x) = 2(2/5)³/75

E(x) = 16/9375

Count the left handed and right handed spirals on the cacti in the photograph you should get two consecutive terms of the Fibona
lana [24]
You can count the spirals because they are coloured.

The left handed spirals are in red and you can count 13.

The rifht hanged spirals are in yellow and you can count 21.

Fibonacci sequence is: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, ... From 2 the next number is the sum of the two previous numbers:

2 = 1 + 1

3 = 2 + 1

5 = 3 + 2

8 = 5 + 3

13 = 8 + 5

21 = 13 + 8.

Fibonacci numbers are found in many structures in nature.

We have just found that these cacti enclose Fibonacci numbers 13 and 21.

Answer: 13 and 21
